New Orleans City Park and Audubon Nature Institute encourage you to participate in Plastic Free July, a 31-day global challenge to reduce and refuse single-use plastics. Let's all team up from across the country to be a part of the challenge and and also invite the New Orleans community to join!

The challenge takes place through an easy-to-use online platform. Click here for the link. Track your individual progress, share successes and challenges with your teammates, and earn points for your completed actions.

Join the Plastic Free New Orleans team and invite your friends and family to get involved. At the end of the month, Audubon will recognize top participants with eco-friendly prizes!

With recent news of reduced plastic recycling in our city, this is a timely opportunity to get involved, educate others, and decrease the amount of plastic going into our waste stream. We hope you’ll join us in spreading the word. Together, our everyday actions can make a big impact.
